Nanzhila Plains Camp

Nanzhila Plains Camp

Kafue National Park

An intimate owner-managed camp which is located in the southern section of Kafue National Park. It has a mix of safari tents and chalets, both en suite. You can get to the camp by road from either Livingstone or Lusaka and the journey takes around 3.5 hours.

Activities include game drives and walks, waterhole viewing and the all-important sundowners! All over the 5 tents and chalets have beautiful views and gauzed windows allow you to fall asleep to the sounds of the African bush. The tents and chalets sit along the tree line giving uninterrupted views and the chance to absorb the peace and tranquillity of the wild. 3 of the tents can sleep up to six people and all have their bathroom with solar-powered lights and hot water.

The game viewing experience is excellent with many visitors reporting sightings of 12 different antelope species on a 3-night stay. There are also elephants, lions, cheetahs and wild dogs. You might be fortunate to spot the elusive leopard. Hippos and buffalos are usually seen further north around Lake Itezhi-tehzhi. The camp welcomes families with children 12 years and over as this is the minimum age for walking safaris in Zambia.

How our Tent Ratings work

​

These are based on our personal experience of the hotel, camp or lodge and should not be compared against ratings you find elsewhere. We intend to guide you and don’t be put off by a low tent rating as some of our favourites fall into the 2 and 3-tent categories.​

​

It is also important to bear in mind that standards vary from country to country and a 4-tent hotel in South Africa cannot be compared with a 4-tent hotel in another part of the world. 

To summarise our grading system, we have considered the following.
